So, what you're getting for the same (or less) money than the aforementioned competition is a larger car — and V6 power when opting for all - wheel drive.

It's undisclosed what the standard front: rear torque split is, but we reckon it's an adapted Haldex system primarily driving the front wheels, but primed to send power aft in an instant.

Some AWD systems also offer what is commonly called torque vectoring, in which sensors direct engine power to the wheels with the most traction regardless of which end or side they are on.
